Another very short story for Halloween. I don't know who the original author is (I'm sure the original was better written...this is from my memory of it). A man lays alone in a pitch-dark, silent room. The power is out. He is frightened and cannot sleep. He needs the comfort of a lighted candle. He reaches for a match, and a match is put into his hand.
